Abstract
Reactions involving ionic or highly polarized compounds comprise the majority of organic reactions, as seen in previous chapters. Most reactions in previous chapters involve one-carbon disconnections. There are reactions involving two-bond disconnections, however, that lead to useful disconnect products. Many of these reactions generate carbon-carbon bonds by electronic reorganization of molecules, rather than via ionic or radical species in what are generically called pericyclic reactions. This chapter will focus on methods that use pericyclic reactions, with a focus on [4+2]-cycloaddition reactions. Other pericyclic reactions will be discussed in Chapter 15. As in previous chapters, however, the emphasis will be on the synthetic utility.
